The first pickup in Mutts Dog House to be awarded Pedigree status is the
"Gerg G90".
"Gerg G90".
Originally designed by the infamous Greg_L the G90 has it's roots in a slightly under wound but as close to vintage P90 as possible. I'll let gerg describe some of the key requirements in his own words.
Not too hot. Mushy is my enemy.
This will mostly be played through roaring Marshalls
After some exchange of PM's we came up with this recipe...One thing...this soapbar will see very loud live action and live loud recording action
Nickle baseplate.
Forbon handmade bobbin
42 AWG wire.
Wound to around 7.5K
Alnico V
Braided pull back wire
Counter clockwise wound south up polarity.
Nickel Fillister head slugs
Lightly potted.
Oh, and a black cover.
The wind pattern and potting are where its at as well as Mutt's special handmade forbon bobbins that give Mutt90 the edge over the competition. Its in the detail..
The making of this special Pickup is described in this thread along with the install and firing her up..
Here is what Gerg had to say about the G90.
The G90 Role of Honour so far includes;So how does it sound? It sounds fantastic. Truly amazing. And that aint just confirmation bias. I've spent enough time with my old P90 to immediately have been blown away with the Mutt90. The highs are clearer but not harsh. The mids seem to punch better without being muddy. The low end is tight and controlled. Very good pickup. The modest output definitely suits my style and sound. You've done very well Mutt. Thank you.
